Boots are always big in our northwestern neck of the woods, but don’t get corralled into thinking one shape fits all. The bootie wave is sweeping fashion as the perfect option when you want a little touch of tough, but don’t need a full cowgirl line-dancing kind of time. The fun part about these is you can wear them with eye-catching little lace socks, or tuck a pair of tights right in. Not feeling so frilly? A cuffed straight legged jean and an ankle boot may be a match straight from heaven.
